Our controversial substance analysis services are a vital support for any business producing cosmetic products, and can reduce the risk of problems arising during the marketing, importing or exporting of products.

Our international experts have specialist knowledge of which substances are banned in different regions or countries – for example, the US, Canada, Japan, and Europe have different lists of banned substances. We can guide you through the maze of requirements your products must meet and conduct tests to detect banned substances, such as:

Heavy metals

Phthalates

Glycol ethers

Formol and formol releasers

Nitrosamines

Allergens

Poly aromatic hydrocarbons

Pesticides

Mycotoxins

GMO

These tests not only highlight problems at the earliest opportunity, ideally before you have invested time and money in developing or transporting a product, they also help protect your brand integrity by reducing the risk of your products provoking controversy.

Our consultants are available to advise on a program to suit your business needs.
